    I'm ill. Stomach virus. Feel rotten. Meal plan out the window. Had to go to shop tonight but only bought packed lunch stuff. Spent £7.94 on bread, milk, fruit, sandwich meat, wraps and apple juice. Oh and some icing sugar (ED is baking at school) and some mince meat for sheperds pie tomorrow. If i'm up to making it. :(

    Hope you feel better soon x

    Good luck with it x

    Got a grocery delivery coming today, I have a free monthly pass from Asda but I have to spend £40 so I bought shopping for this week, next week and DS's birthday party which is a great help as it would have been a few bulky shops to get it done on foot!

    Should just need milk and bread as top ups as I have a fruit, veg and meat box coming on Friday plus some cabbage and broccoli to top up my veg heavy meals depending on the veg box.

    Will be back later to update spends once delivery has been.

    It's pouring again here today luckily Mum is visiting this afternoon with her car ;) so I can run a few non grocery chores and stay relatively dry *fingers crossed.
    Stay at home Mum to DS Oct 2011 and DD Dec 2013

    Well got 2 kids home from school now, so after picking them up I popped into Iceland for some flavoured water. Ended up spending £13, picked up the 4 advent calendars for December. Left it too late last year and ended up paying well over the odds for 1D calendars. Not letting that happen again! Also got some coke for me, see if that helps (leaving it to go flat), some grapes (had 50p off), bananas and cheese.

    Forgot the milk, but with this bug we will all be keeping off it for now. Wanted to curl up on the sofa, feel sorry for myself all day and catch up with sky+, no chance of that now. The joys of being a mother! :D

    Will update sig

    Just back from shopping and have spent less just under £17 in Mr Ts and £1.74 in the farm shop. I've now spent just over £111/£250 this month with 10 days to go so think I should come in under budget.
